Setting Up Nameservers

  1. First write down 2 IP addresses from your reseller account and go to the registrar for your domain. The registrar is the organization from which you purchased your domain name.
  2. All registrars differ in their exact procedures for setting up nameservers. Look for options allowing you to "Manage Nameservers" "Add nameservers" or "Create Virtual Nameservers". Direct inquiries to the registrar should you require assistance with this step. We have a series of registrar based tutorials available on the same page on which this guide was found.
  3. You will be required to supply the nameserver name (example: ns.domainname.com) and an IP address. Use the IP addresses written down earlier and assigned to your account (2 of them ), 1 for each nameserver (2 nameservers are required).
  4. Now point your domain name to your nameservers. Point any additional domains, such as your resold client's domains, to your nameservers.

Please allow 24-72 hours for DNS propagation.

Once DNS resolves to your new Plesk account you may use this URL for the Plesk Login: https://yourdomainname.com:8443

Now you have the ability to start configuring your Plesk account.
